Be warned!!!! The local police are taking no prisoners this year, I believe the local law enforcement officers are doing patrols down at the beach and are warning folk that they will be prosecuted if they are caught consuming alcohol at their braai spots..... it is an offence to drink in public places .... I myself was astonished to see a convoy of four police vehicles patrolling the beach at 23h00 last night.....
Break the law, you are gonna get caught, I guess this bodes well for when the town actually opens....

A BRAAI AT THE BEACH WITH NO BOOZE ??? OH DEAR ??
I think there is a moerse difference between "dronk op straat" and drinking a dop at a braai place.
Bowling Club, Rugby Club, Angling Club are public places......suppose they will be next..and then our homes.
No more...... New-Year2
They should rather patrol the town streets and be on the lookout for burglars...
Toooo Truee .. I hate the " shotgun " approach .. diffs is forget the little blocks that have to be filled in .. is it rowdy , out of control .. heading for 3 road accidents ?/ or whatever .. seems like in our city the nannies are taking over .. I appreciate checks and controls ,, the 24 hour shebeens are a problem ... the legit operators another story .. me been fighting for a liquor licence for the lass 7 months .. and these assholes sit on their fat buts .. the brief is SA is to encourage entreneurship yet we get all kinds of red tape thrown in our way .. Uuugh !! but yes I believe the braais on the beach .?? dry ?? huh ?? what are we ?? wont go into that .. but yes the men in blue grey or whatever should be taught to evaluate each situation ... and work from there ... Nanny Nanny ....... !!!!!!!!#$%$%^^&*&*(*
In Sweden, the limit is .02 — which according to a on msn emoticon (68)line calculator I found would mean a 170-pound man could be over the limit after drinking two beers in an hour. In practice, Japanese drivers can't have any alcohol in their bloodstream, according to a study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, or NHTSA.
In these countries, drinkers have largely adapted to the tough rules, and rely on designated drivers or cabs to stay out of trouble.
